KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS INITIATED CLASS SUNDAY.

Fifty-two candidates were initiated into the order of the Knights <tf Columbus here Sunday at the Bishop Dwenger council exemplification. Besides those taking the work from here several candidates from Fowler and other surrounding towns took the degrees. The' day’s program started with 'high mass at St. Augustine’s church, the knights attending in a body. At 'this service Rev. L A. Wagner, president of St. Joseph’s college, preached the sermon. —— i At 10:30 a. m. the first degree was conferred at the school hall by [Grand Knight Sauer, of Lafayette, and team. - In the afternoon the second and third degrees were given at the college gymnasium by District Deputy Kemple.and team, of Lafayette, and State Deputy Callahan and staff, of Ft, Wayne. . . -I. In the evening a banquet was served by the ladies of St. Augustine’s parish in the parish school Vm.lV to about three hundred people. During the banquet Young’s orchestra, of Hammond, furnished the musical numbers and Mr. Angelton, of Unity council, entertained with songs. Conrad Kellner was toastmaster at the evening- program. Father Daniels, of St. Augustine’s .parish, gave the invocation. After this Rev. Maher, of Goodland, gave an interesting talk on knighthood.» Father Mclntyre, of St. Joseph’s college, who served as a chaplain in the United States aumy in France, then talked on the Knights of Columbus in Europe. He told of the fine fellowship which existed between the chaplains and secretaries of all denominations and stated that in all his experiences in the service that he had not cited one case of ill feeling because of different religious -befififg_jjmongst the doughboys. He praised the unselfish work of the knights during the war and urged them to do all in their power to keep up the good work in tirrie of peace and promote good feeling everywhere. He also asked the knights to study carefully the questions of reconstruction that the order may stand out as a bulwark against Bolshevism and all radicalism. Mrs. Harve Messman then gave a reading, delivered in her usual clever way, which greatly pleased the audience. Next the candidates initiated Sunday were asked to be pushers, not riders in ithe order, in a splendid talk by Hon. E. P. Honan, entitled “Moral Courage.” ——-—=- After a few parting words by Father Daniels and Grand Knight John £. Murphy, the knights and their friends left, proclaiming it a red letter day for the local council of Knights of Columbus.

THANKSGIVING DAY—ITS ORIGIN AND ITS MEANING.

Thanksgiving day is near at hand, bringing with it all the joys that attend the season, feasting family reunions, fun and jollity, and permeating the whole spirit of reverent thankfulness that warms and cheers. At its best Thanksgiving means a manifestation of hospitality and the enjoyment of friendships that are the ripe fruit of neighborliness. . It is really a country affair, with country ways and country living, country products and country hospitality. Thanksgiving means less in the city, still less in a hotel and nothing at all on a dining car It needs the rural atmosphere, hills and fields, woods’Band lanes, the harvested crops, ripe firuit and the peaceful surroundings which the country alone can provide. A woman it was who gave us the Thanksgiving holiday universally observed. Mrs. Sarah Joseph Hale, known as “the mother of Thanksgiving,” was editor of the two leading women's magazines of their day, Ladies’ Magazine and Godey’s Lady’s Book, which were published in 'Philadelphia. • _ , , . For twenty, years Mrs. Hale kept up the agitation for a universal observance of Thanksgiving day and finally her efforts were rewarded with the result of co-operation on ithe part of President Lincoln, who established the precedent of pro- : claiming (the holiday on the last Thursday in November of each year, and no president since that time has failed to issue a similar prociama- : tion. j The first national Thanksgiving 1 day, appointed by congress, occurred lon July 20, 1775. The next was 'held on May 17, 1776. In 1778 I Wednesday was chosen, but Washington favored Thursday. Formerly New York observed Thanksgiving a week earlier than New England, and many Gothamites were in the habit of returning to their early homes and thus they got the benefit of two Thanksgiving dinners. „ . , , ' But to Widow Hale belongs the distinction of establishing the national holiday at a uniform time.

COUNTY EDUCATIONAL NOTES.

The Red Cross nurse, Miss Nettie B. Jordan, gave an inspection of the Fair Oaks school last Thursday and Friday. It is surprising at the number of defects that are handicapping our children in the schools. Children who have swollen tonsils, enlarged glands, bad teeth, adenoids, throat trouble, etc., et., have reduced vitalities and are susceptible to disease. They are unable to do the school tasks in the proper manner. This movement to apprise the parents of children’s defects should meet the approval of every wideawek apa rent in Jasper county. Jasper county is among a very few counties in Indiana that have Red Cross nurses. It will be within the time of us new when regularly licensed nurses will draw public pay and the instructions of such nurses

will mandatory rather than advisory. The Red Cross nurses are breaking the way for this eventual thing. The first Jasper county rural conference will be held at Fair Oaks on Monday, December 1, at 1 p. m., in the high school auditorium. The board of education will convene at Fair Oaks instead of at Rensselaer. A large crowd of enthusiastic school | people will be present that afternoon. A number of speeches from citizens of Union township and the county will be made. The school will furnish a few numbers. Community singing of appropriate songs will also give variety to this afternoon program. Thanksgiving vacation will be* this week. Schools are dismissing for Thursday and Friday following. It is hoped that all schools will con- j duct fitting programs in memory of j the things for which we are grateful' this year. It would be exceptionally i appropriate for teachers to read DickenS* Christmas Carol to the pu-j pils during the next two weeks.! Most- all pupils of all grades can' get enough of the story to make tnem appreciate Christmas holidays. Iva Poole's school at Blue Grass, j in Newton township, was closed for' three days last week on account of scarlet fever. Parents are urged to j keep a close watch upon their chil- i dren to avoid dangerous complies- ! tions coming from the rather mild t form that prevails in a number of i communities. 1

LARGE CROWD TO WITNESS TURKEY DAY GAME.

Indications are that a record crowd will push its way into Riverside park the afternoon of Thanksgiving day to watch the clash between the Rensselaer and Sheridan high school football teams. The advance ticket sale is heavy among our citizens and the out-of-town visitors during the days are sure to swell the crowd considerably. Football in Rensselaer on Thanksgiving day has become an institution and has always been one of the most pleasant features of the day. In Sheridan high school Rensselaer is colliding with one of the 1 topnotch outfits of the state and a win over the downataters will make the season a success in every way from a local standpoint. Coach Hadley has pointed his men especially for this fray and has his men groomed to the pink. Sheridan was deadlocked with Kentland when the whistle sounded at the end of their game earlier in the season, and a win over them would vindicate the locals in.part for their defeat suffered at the hands of Kentland. E. J# Randle, Harry Swartzell, Russell |Lesh, Paul Lesh, Granville Moody. i Sr., and Granville Moody, Jr., went to Chicago this morning.

GREAT MASS OF PROOF.

Reports of SO,WO Case* of Kidney Trouble, Some of Them Rensselaer Cases. Each of some 6,000 newspapers of the United States is publishing from week to week, names of people in its particular neighborhood, who have used and recommended Doan’s Kidney Pills for kidney backache, weak kidneys, bladder troubles and urinary disorders. This mass of proof includes over 50,000 recommendations. Rensselaer is no exception. Here is one of the Rensselaer cases: Jacob R. Wilcox, retired fanner, says: “I suffered from backaches and severe pains across my. loins. I couldn't dpy or night and was tired and worn out. The kidney secretions were highly colored and [contained sediment. Nothing seemed to relieve me until I got Doan’s Kidney Pills from Eendig’s Drug Store. They relieved the aches and pains, I could rest better nights and my kidneys were regulated.” Over eight years later, Mr. Wilcox said: “I continue recommending Doan’s Kidney PiHs us a reliable medicine. They have never failed to do good work.” Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Mr. Wilcox had. Foster-Mil-bum Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N. Y. Jasper Wright went to Grown Point this morning for a visit with •his daughter, Mrs. George Herahman. .
